RT published this video item, entitled “Children in Yemen suffer from severe acute malnutrition” – below is their description.
The twin baby boys lying on a bed made out of palm leaves in a remote camp for refugees in #Yemen’s north are just two of the millions of Yemenis facing #famine in the war-torn country. Twins Mohamed and Ali Hassan al-Jumaai appear to be twisting in pain, not from a particular disease, but from starvation. They were born to a Yemeni farmer from the district of Harad in Yemen’s northern Hajjah province along the border with Saudi Arabia. The family has fled the fighting and taken refuge in a camp for displaced people in the district of Abs. U.N. agencies last month warned that at least 98,000 children under five in southern Yemen could die from severe acute malnutrition. Already, Yemen is home to the world’s worst food crisis, mostly due to the civil war there.
